Process of moving SYS from one host to another
Redneck:
I'm in the process of moving my Symbiostock site from one host to another. I've already exported/imported the MySQL database and then started copying all files and folders via FTP. The FTP process has been running for the last 36 hours. It seems like I'm done with the big piece, the /symbiostock_rf/ folder.
However - now it's transmitting the /symbiostock_xml_cache/ folder while I hoped to be done by this time. I checked that folder and it contains tens of thousands files, most of them around 1KB large but some up to 30KB.
Now I'm wondering two things ...
1. Do I need to copy the content of that folder when I move to another host?
2. Regardless of the move, should we clean out that folder from time to time to keep our SYS website clean, lean and fast?
Any opinions?
I was hoping to get the move done today ...
ajt:
Folder symbiostock_xml_cache can be empty, there is no need to copy all files. Now limit for number of files in cache is set to 50000. Files above this limit are deleted once a day.
Redneck:
Thanks, good info.

Do you mind me asking from which host your moving from/to?
Redneck:
Don't mind at all. Moving from Bluehost to All-inkl.com.
